"Discover the Richness of Guinee: From Quince Trees to African Art and Magnificent Birds" Guinee, a captivating country in West Africa, offers a diverse range of wonders that will leave you enchanted. Let's embark on a journey through its remarkable highlights. Firstly, Guinee is home to the majestic Quince tree (Cydonia oblonga) and its delectable fruit. The sight of these trees laden with ripe quinces is truly enchanting, showcasing nature's abundance. As we explore further, we encounter the impressive de Havilland Canada DHC-6-300 Twin Otter 3X-GAY soaring through the skies above Conakry's picturesque beach. This aircraft symbolizes Guinee's modernity and connectivity. Moving inland, we discover the serene landing stage at Rio Nunez (Nunez River) in Boké - an idyllic spot where river meets land. It serves as a gateway to both adventure and tranquility for locals and visitors alike. In Kindia, our attention turns to healthcare as we witness the dedication of medical professionals at a local hospital. Their commitment ensures that communities receive quality care when they need it most. The artistic heritage shines brightly through an exquisite Nimba mask made from wood and raffia displayed at Paris' Musee Picasso. This masterpiece represents not only traditional African art but also cultural exchange between nations. History comes alive as we learn about Samory Toure - a courageous ruler who fought against French colonization in present-day Guinee and Burkina Faso. His daring act of self-sacrifice during captivity speaks volumes about his unwavering spirit. Our exploration takes us beyond borders to Port Dory in Papua New Guinea, depicted beautifully in "The old and modern costume" by Ferrario from 1819-20. This illustration showcases how different cultures intertwine across continents.
